Gifford" Subject: SURVEY: Xylogics (Bay Networks) erpcd Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk PURPOSE: The purpose of this survey is to see if enough Xylogics (Bay Networks) erpcd users exist using FreeBSD to encourage Xylogics to officially support FreeBSD. Please respond if you currently run erpcd on a FreeBSD platform. If you are NOT currently running erpcd on a FreeBSD platform but WOULD run erpcd on a FreeBSD platform if Xylogics officially supported FreeBSD in more than just a single outdated version, please respond as well. DEADLINE: Thursday, Jan. 24 1997 -- I would like to finish this survey quickly, so please respond as soon as possible. I will create a survey results summary and put it online at http://www.infowest.com/erpcd-survey.html on Friday, Jan. 25. SURVEY: * Do you or does your organization currently run erpcd on a FreeBSD platform? (If yes, what version of FreeBSD? 2.0.5R, 2.1R, 2.1.5R, 2.1.6R, 2.1.6-STABLE, 2.2-BETA, or some other version or intermediate version?) * Do you or does your organization currently run erpcd on a BSDI BSD/OS platform? (If yes, what version of BSD/OS?) * Do you or does your organization currently run erpcd on a Linux platform? (If yes, what version?) * Would you or your organization run erpcd on a FreeBSD platform IF Xylogics officially supported FreeBSD beyond a single outdated FreeBSD version (2.0.5R)? * May I use your name, or your organization's name with a contact e-mail address when I contact Xylogics with the results of this informal survey in an effort to encourage them to support FreeBSD? Please specify what name, organization name, and/or e-mail address that I may use. * Please include any other related comments here that you would like included with any message I send to Xylogics. * May I use your contact information and comments on the web page summary? END OF SURVEY That's all! Thank you for your time and cooperation. I hope there is enough interest in FreeBSD to help Xylogics support it. I currently run erpcd on a FreeBSD 2.1.6-STABLE platform, and I've had trouble with their customer support because I'm not running on an officially supported platform, even though I can run the Xylogics supplied 2.0.5R binary or the BSD/OS binary on the same FreeBSD box. The difficulties with Xylogics customer support are what prompted me to do this survey. Again, thanks for your participation.
